ijs Build-Depends on devscripts. Thats normal, but unfortunately
devscripts depends on a package built from gnupg2 and gnupg2
Build-Depends on transfig, which is provided by fig2dev and which
depends on libijs-0.35 via ghostscript. This is a cycle and hampers
bootstrapping.
So I started looking why it has this devscripts dependency. The build
log shows that it tries running licensecheck, which is missing. At the
time of adding the devscripts dependency (according to git) licensecheck
was contained in devscripts. It was later moved to its own package. I
guess the dependency should simply be updated to licensecheck. In doing
so, we break the cycle. Please consider applying the attached patch.
